I had a motor insurance policy from Cholamandalam. The cheque for premium given bounced due to lack of fund on the partcular date. On intimation I immediately paid the premium with fine.

In between I met an accident, however Cholamandalam, declined to pay the claim, citing the reason of checque bounce and policy discontinuation. Further they took more than 3 months to issue me a new policy.

Please let me know, If they can discontinue a policy for premium cheque bounce without giving an opportunity to the customer, also while collecting a fine for checque bounce.

    I have taken a loan from Cholamandalam Bank for Two Wheeler Loan A/c No.X2WHDTW[protected] against ECS of Rs.2074/- from my above SB Account.

    I have received a call from Cholamandalam bank that the server of the bank is not working properly, hence the installment of above loan is to be paid by cash. On 30.03.2009 I have paid the amount by cash vide receipt No. 1107666 and collection agent Mr. Vikram also confirmed the technical problem of the server of Cholamandalam Bank.

    The above EMI was already cleared on 21.03.2009 through ECS from my Bank Account. (Copy of Bank Statement Attached).

    After that I have submitted the documents with Cholamandalam bank for refund of excess payment.

    On 23.04.2009 I have received a DD of Rs.1538/- bearing No. 139978 after deduction of cheque bouncing charges of Rs.536/-. After discussion I have came to know that the reason was in-sufficient funds, but as per my bank statement the funds were sufficient to clear the EMI.

    I have also submitted a letter to my banker i.e. Vijay BAnk, NIT, Faridabad but that told me that ECS cannot be stoped because it is coming directly through RBI.

    Continuousely I am giving call to Cholamandalam bank people and not getting any response brom them

    Kindly help me to refund the amount deducted by Cholamandalam bank.

    I have taken a personal loan from Cholamandalam Bank A/c No.YSEGJAY[protected] against ECS of Rs.3547/- from my above SB Account

    I have received a call from Cholamandalam bank that the server of the bank is not working properly; hence the installment of above loan is to be paid by cash. On date 03.04.2008 to 05.02.2009 I have paid the amount by cash and collection agent also confirmed the technical problem of the server of Cholamandalam Bank. 05.03.2009 Ecs is fun citing properly

    But this (05.04.2008 to 05.02.2009) period bad rescored entered in my account statement

    I need to remove this bad record what do, because of this my sit loan rejected

    Kindly help me to remove the bad record in my account statement by Cholamandalam bank.
    Dear Customer Care,

    My loan account number is XSEGKOL[protected]. The EMI of the loan is 17470/-. It comes to my bank on 5th or 6th of every month. According to my bank statement, I have deposited adequate money on 5th of Oct'2009, though the EMI has bounced . I do not know the reason for this occurance.

    After that, I got a call from your bank regarding the bouncing of EMI and I requested them to re-deposit the EMI, but they said, 'it is not possible for them to re-deposit the EMI . So your collection agent again has collected a cheque of Rs. 17470/-, drawn on AXIS bank ( chq. No. 107763 dt. 14.10.09) and the cheque has cleared from our account today i.e. 24.10.09.

    Also, I have collected the bank statement of HDFC bank, wherin your EMI comes and I am astonished to find that, Rs. 17470/- again debited from my account. And for this reason, my another cheque has bounced due to insufficient fund. What is this?????? I have suffered for you. When, there is a probition of re-depositing, then why you collect another cheque from me???????

    Anyways, either you refund the amount or adjust the amount as EMI for the month of November, 2009.

    Besides, my address has changed, so any future correspondence, please follow my address, which is mentioned below for your reference.

    Awaiting your soonest reply.

    Thanks & best regards.

    loan — Taken the amount of around Rs.30000 and now mobile switched off

    Respected Sir,

    I have seen an add in danik bhaskar classifieds around 2 months ago for taking loan.
    I called the no. they have given me an email address i.e [protected]@gmail.com to send them my scan copy of pan card , marksheet and my bank passbook . They said send us Rs.780 in our bank account number in SBI bank i.e [protected] account holder name Ranjeet Sharma. and said that as soon as you will put this money we will sanction your loan after I deposited that money they said that ok now deposit Rs.5000 more I deposited that amount also and then said ok we will call u in 20 mins and loan will be sanctioned , then after 20mins when I called them they said give us another 20 mins. and said same after every call and then when bank closed down they said ok we will do it tomorow since bank is closed today . Then when I called next day they said ok sir please doposit Rs.7000 more as filling charges and the same procedure repeated itself like this they have asked me for about Rs.30000 . I tried to know the situation of their mobile no. in website traceindia.com in that it said it's a delhi no. and they said me that they are in hyederabad . When I asked him is your office is in delhi , he switched off the phone and now its still switched off . This whole process took about 1 and half month. I have some voice clips of our conversation too which was recorded from my phone. Sir please do something about this . If you get any information about this no. do call me on [protected] or email me at [protected]@gmail.com

          Loan Account No. XSEGTHA[protected]
          Borrower - Chirag Kothari - B.com.L.L.B.

          The aforesaid loan has been taken as on 23rd January, 2008 from Cholamandalam DBS. for a period of 3 years for an EMI of Rs. 6717 to be represented as on 5th Of Every month to be started from March - 2008...Till the date all emis were cleared properly.

          As on 5th October, 2008, one of the emi got bounced inspite of having balance in our account.. For which we called ur customer care call center, which told us that there is no system of representation of emi which we asked for and we were told that an executive will be sent and payment can made to that person. An executive was sent by cholamandalam as on 11th October, 2008 and payment was made to him in Cash vide receipt no. 688438 to Mr. Ashfaq. So my emi for october which was bounced got cleared and no amount was due on behalf of myself.

          As on 21st October, 2008 when i checked my Hsbc bank account no.[protected] from which cholamandalams emi are going through internet banking id - gr8chirag, at 10 AM - IST, there was an entry of representation of emi of rs. 6717 of choalamandalam dbs, and there was a charge of rs. 309.75 from my bank due to insufficient funds...

          When i called customer care toll free no. of cholamandalam on[protected] at 10.20 AM, Indian Standard Time as on 21/10/2008, and talked with executive Miss Bhanu, she told me that there was a technical error from cholamanalam side and due to which the emi has been represented...and they are sorry for the inconvenience caused to me, When i asked for a complaint no. she said there is no system of complaint no. Loan account no. is only complaint no...

          When i asked her, are you going to refund me the cheque bounce charges which has been charged to me due to technical mistake from your side, she said we don't have any such system..we only refund emi, and not charges related thereto and we are again sorry for any inconvenience which has been caused to me.I told her to give call to seniors. My call was transferred to Miss Chitra. Miss chitra also said it is a technical error from Cholamandalam DBs and we are sorry and we won't refund the charges which has been charged by our bank. and We dont have system of giving customer any complaint no. and none of our managers and superiors are going to call you back with regard to the same. Miss chitra gave me a no. [protected] on which call was made from 28440130 but the no.was constant busy.

          (1) There is a mistake in your system...first you say there is no representation of emi. then you represented it.

          (2) You don't have system of giving complaint no. which is generally done and which is a must for all the banks and financial institutions..and such a system is very common..If your organisation thinks such a system should not be there, then rich you won't become but famous you will be surely by your technical expertise,

          (3) Payment has been made, but the system was not upadated...Updating system is your job, not of customers..I don't operate your computers..otherwise i would have done by myself...

          (4) Your both executives accepted that there is a clear technical error in ur system due to which the emi was represented inspite of saying no and inspite of making payment.

          (5) A lot of inconvenience has been caused to me. All banks have sorry as the last word...if there is mistake from our side, then you dont forfeit none of your charges. Late Fees, Penalty, Service Tax. Same rule is applicable to you also.There is a clear deficiency in consumer services as per the consumer protection act prevailing in India. You just cant get away just by saying sorry.

          - Compensation of Rs. 20, 000/- which is calculated on the basis of following

          (1) for inconvenience which has been caused to me due to disnonour of ecs without consent and due to technical mistake in your system.
          (2) Wastage of Time in talking and arguing with 2 of your customer care executives...
          (3) Writing this email and sending it to .
          (4) Mental Harrassment.
          (5) Refund the amount charged to me by HSBC bank.- Rs. 309.75
          (6) Spoiling my bank statement and credit worthiness and bringing down the reputation and goodwill of myself.

          You can directly deposit the money in MY HSBC Account[protected]. See i am so fast... or else we can meet in consumer court and surely in front of media... Your system is so unorganised which others should also know. so that no one comes to take loan from your bank...

          Kindly take down my written request for foreclosure of this loan and refund me the compensation amount.. Your sorry is not enough. If i delay your payment and say sorry then you will accept my sorry only with late fees charges. right...so similar rule is applicable to you.

          I find all your financial managers. very funny. who has made rules and your system of collecting payment and disbursing loan. Lawyers dont get loan, but i was given. from day one you are committing mistake...nothing more..Reply only with money ready and keep sorry for your wife and mother in law.. and be hero in front of them by saying that i am working in bank...not in front of me..

          how many my total insalment
          Hi chirag,

          This is Priya from Visag, ,

          I really want to appreciate you from the bottom of my heart for the above
          complaint you logged..It gave me some hope to fight for my friend regarding
          her personal loan with the same company.

          The funniest part is that I was looking for a customer care number online
          to log a complaint and landed on the same page of the above link you gave,
          which is really useless, but somehow this page opened up and grabbed
          my attention to go through the lines and here I am responding for the same.

          No wonder you managed to take the issue up with so ease as you are a lawyer
          yourself, but think how we, commoners can handle such peoblems, where in
          we don't have any idea how to take it up and whom to take it up with, so we just
          end up losing our money and prestige. I lot of times thought I should go to the
          consumer court for so many issues, but have nobody to guide or help me.
          and the spare time has always been a problem.

          I am posting the link of your complaint to couple of my friends, so it can become
          a JAAGO RE kind of campaign. Please post any such issues if you have tackled
          which can enlighten the public, and let me know if any such organisations where
          we can approach, for help..

          ThanQ so much.

          Priyanjali.
          I had applied a LAP loan from your company on dated 12Feb2009. I made severall queries there after to know about the status of my application but no satisfactory response was received today it has been almost 45 days since i applied for this loan still my problem remain the same. Today when i visited Ludhiana branch Mr RAVINDER KUMAR and some other official behaved with me in a very bad manner and used the ABUSIVE language also. When i asked to refund my processing fee amount of rs:2809/. The official these will not be returned Mr RAVINDER have also taken rs:4000/ for the purpose of increasing of property value because he said that my property value is not suitable for this loan. I request you to please look into the matter seriously and refund my all money also clarify the reason for not giving the loan otherwise i will submit a case against your company in CONSUMER COURT.Please revert as soon as possible.

          Dear Sir/Madam,

          With reference to your settlement letter no 9531 dated 19.03.10, I accept this letter on behalf of my mother's loan. As per settlement letter I paid Rs.4500/- vide cheque no. 497900 dt 22.03.10 against recipt no 1663338 dt 22.3.10 as 1st instalment of settlement. This Cheque was cleared from my bank on 27 th March 10.
          But I am surprised to see deduction of Rs.2121/- through ECS from my mother's pention account against the same loan.
          therefore you are requested to pls refund Rs. 2121/- as I am paying the settlement amount as per the settlement letter.
          Regards.
